Terrain makes a huge difference. I bet my JT Rubicon would get 18 or 19 mpg on flat land, but, I live on hills. Everywhere I go, I go up and down hills, therefore, I am around 16 mpg.I didn't realize the Rubi's were getting that low of mileage. I have been getting 21-22 in the Overland. 14-15 seems a drastic drop.
I'm in Colorado Springs...nothing but hills everywhere. Hell there is almost a 1K elevation change in almost every direction from my place. I checked the average that I have been getting since I got it in November...I am at 21.5...and that is with remote starting anytime it's under 35 degrees.Terrain makes a huge difference.

That is amazing. I do run with ESS off all the time.... so, I probably lose a little mpg there.... I hate that start/stop deal.I'm in Colorado Springs...nothing but hills everywhere.

I run with it on...I have only had 2 scares where I wish it was off...but the MPG savings seem to be legit with it on. I should try running my next tank of gas with it off just to see how much difference there is.That is amazing. I do run with ESS off all the time.... so, I probably lose a little mpg there....

I’m in SoCal and have very few hills. Again it’s new, but getting 14 MPG sucks!Terrain makes a huge difference. I bet my JT Rubicon would get 18 or 19 mpg on flat land, but, I live on hills. Everywhere I go, I go up and down hills, therefore, I am around 16 mpg.
